"I still have respect and faith in Bungie. This is just one error, and you all really need to calm down." If I had a penny for every time I heard this on these forums, I'd have enough money to fund the entire Destiny franchise by myself. If I got a nickel for every time this was said following a Destiny blunder, I'd have enough money to retire after I finished funding the franchise. Don't get me wrong, I used to be a Bungie fanboy myself, but this is not the Bungie who created Halo. This is not the Bungie who gave us all those good memories, that earned our blind loyalty, and the time to wake up to this is long past. Nearly all of the developers who created those memories are gone, literally. It's time you, as I have already, stopped looking at this company as "Bungie, the creators of Halo" because that Bungie is gone. As goes with the passing of the torch, those who come after must be judged on their own merit, not on the stories of those who came before. If the people who walk in the shadows of giants are always judged for the shadows in which they walk, they will never reach greatness so as to cast their own. Much as I might sympathize with the devs, who's passion is often reflected in Destiny and D2, there have been far too many bad decisions made by Bungie's management. Halo's Bungie grew to become the legend it was because both the developers and the management were passionate about the world they were creating. What I see when I look at Destiny's Bungie is a group of developers who are passionate about their work being held back by management who only care about their yearly bonuses.

  • I don't see Bungie as the 'creators of Halo'. I stopped seeing them as that after D1's base game. I guess I just saw Forsaken as the best thing to ever happen to D2, and I even enjoyed Shadowkeep and the SoU content. Sure the final assault is a disappointment, but I believe Bungie can come back from this as they have before.
